Transfer credits to С��è��ý

Get credit for work you’ve done at other schools! To transfer credits from other colleges, universities, and test scores from exams, follow the steps below. For other types of learning, see credit for prior learning.

1. Send official transcripts

   Have your previous school send official transcripts to С��è��ý Student Records.

   • Electronic delivery: the best way to send transcripts. Transcripts must be sent directly from your previous school to be accepted. We cannot accept transcripts sent by students.
     • When using a transcript service (Parchment, National Student Clearinghouse, etc.) search for “С��è��ý” as the recipient. If prompted for a direct email address, your transcript service or previous school can send transcripts to records@pcc.edu.
   • Paper delivery: sent directly from your previous school in a sealed envelope. Mail to:
     С��è��ý Student Records
     PO Box 19000
     Portland, OR 97280-0990

2. Request evaluation

   Once we get your transcripts, request a .

3. Watch your email

   You’ll get a message in your С��è��ý email when the evaluation is complete. See the “Credit Acceptance” section below for details about our credit evaluation standards.

How long does it take?

We evaluate transcripts on a first-come, first-served basis. Turnaround time depends on the volume of requests and factors such as end-of-term awarding. While you’re waiting, you can submit an unofficial transcript for a prerequisite override.

Credit acceptance

Some common standards for credit acceptance:

• Courses must be passed with grade C- or better. (P and S grades are transferable if the issuing school defines them as C- or better.)
• Initially, we evaluate lower division collegiate (LDC) coursework. See for more about LDC coursework.
  We evaluate upper division coursework on student request.
  Career technical coursework (CTE) may transfer on departmental approval.
• If you are undeclared, we only transfer credits needed to meet standard prerequisites, or other commonly used preparatory coursework in a subject (e.g. Biology).
• For AP exam standards, see advanced placement.
• For IB exam standards, see international baccalaureate.
• For international credits, see evaluation of foreign transcripts.
• Credits from other accredited schools (schools that have accreditation other than regional) will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Syllabi will be required for evaluation. Transfer credit is not guaranteed.

View your credits

Once the evaluation is complete, your unofficial transcript in MyС��è��ý shows transferred courses. If a course did not transfer as you expected, please review our standards for credit acceptance (see above). If you still have questions, please contact us.

• Why are some of my transfer courses listed as 1XX or 2XX?
  If a course is not directly equivalent to a С��è��ý course, we assign 1XX or 2XX in the closest subject area. Often, these courses still meet specific С��è��ý degree requirements.
• Why do grades from my transfer classes have a ‘T’ in front of them?
  This means the course was transferred to С��è��ý. For example, a ‘B’ earned at another school will appear as ‘TB’ on your unofficial С��è��ý transcript. These grades will not appear on your official transcript. Instead, your С��è��ý transcript will show a summary of the total credits transferred.
• Will my transferred grades affect my GPA?
  Transfer grades are not included in your GPA on С��è��ý transcripts.
